It's compilations of half hour-or-so videos bolted together as a "training course". But he figures one 5GB file is a bit much for a single download or even a single viewing (it's ten hours complete, so it's a fair amount to sleep through watch)
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Have you tried FFMPEG? It does a great job at stitching videos together and lots of other things if you can figure out the parameters needed!
If you have, how do you compare it to Avidemux?
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

I can't help with the video cruddles, but the cold is best dealt with using, in lieu of Whiskey what you don't do, garlic & ginger.
1 clove of garlic, 3-4 cm of root ginger. Finely chop and steep in about 1l of boiling water for 30 minutes. Add honey [2tb for me] and lemon [1/2 ish] to taste. Drink and feel better.
Slightest sign of sniffles and I make it and it may not keep out the cold but it keeps my grey cells from turning to mush.

Is that the one with the half-sized up & down keys?
LUXURY! The winio OSK doesn't even have up & down keys!

Ouch. OK, I'll take my teeny tiny up/down keys and stop whining.

Count yourself lucky. I have a 'full' keyboard on my Tosh with separate number pad and proper cursor keys, great for dev work and proper keyboarding. Except...
The up key is FUBAR and so I have to have numlock off so that I can have move the cursor up.

But he didn't put cursor keys on the iPhone.
We're philosophical about power outages here. A.C. come, A.C. go.

No, I have them right here. I'm looking at my phone and there they are: cursor keys right there.
Oh, wait, this is an Android phone. I've been using this phone for over and year and I just noticed it's an Android. Well, that's just crazy.
What do you know, Android phones have cursor keys.

He didn't put cursor keys on the original Mac, either...

I don't know if you're supposed to be an Apple fanboi, but given the number of complaints you post about various aspects of your MacBook or OS X or whatever...you're actually doing a terrible job promoting anything Apple.
Or is that all part of some sort of clever reverse-psychology scheme? You are, after all, at the head of one of the most popular sites dedicated to Windows development...
I'm on to you...

Ha!
We're not dedicated to Windows development. We're dedicated to development in any shape or form. We just have lots of .NET stuff due to our personal expertise / preferences and that of our audience.
In terms of Apple stuff, I love their stuff. Or loved. I think their devs need a slap around the head, and I think John Ive needs to back off the minimal and understand we live in the real world. I'm also very, very disappointed in Tim Cook taking Apple back to the dark times of a series line so complicated that not even the execs at Apple understood it. (and that's when Steve came back and made the company what it is. Or was.)
sigh. It's complicated.

"Dedicated" is definitely the wrong word.
"Heavily slanted towards"?

Yeah, definitely, but the more Swift / Node / React / Java / COBOL / Whatever we get the better. The days of being able to sit on one stack are long gone. (Though Xamarin does try and insulate us and pretend there's nothing else out there).

And also ... Windows bashing / mocking happened here too ...
I was one of the complainers when Win 10 Update went nuts and
spoiled my computer. It is indeed rather complicated sigh ...

Ah! Fond memories...my first 'modern' computer was a PowerMac 6100 running on 7.5.x...and my first computer book was 'Sad Macs, Bombs, and Other Disasters'. I must have rebuilt that thing a dozen times!

There's a Hell of a thick line between liking something and worshipping it -- and anyone who knows anything about anything won't worship a brand, because a company is only as good as its last Note 7... cr@ppy OS... product.
As always, it's those with only a little learning who make the most trouble.

That reminds me of Steve jobs saying for Tablets "Macbooks should come with Sandpapers to use those arrow keys: 
You can have all the tools in the world but if you don't genuinely believe in yourself, it's useless.
